A Time of Thankfulness
Each one of us have much for which to be thankful. Are you saved? Do you have a family? Has God allowed you to serve Him? Do you have friends? Are you alive and healthy? Do you have food, clothing, and a house to live? Simply put, it would do all of us good to make a list of what we are thankful for, and be vocal to God and others about His goodness in our lives.
Here at Vision Baptist Missions, we are super thankful for you! We pray you have a great Christmas season!
Welcome Noah Haught, VBM’s Newest Missionary!

I was blessed to grow up in a Christian home. Jesus Christ and our local church was the priority throughout my entire childhood, praise God! The night before my first day of kindergarten, I remember being burdened about my state as a lost sinner and in need of Christ. I spoke to my parents that night and made a profession of faith. As time went on, however, I began to forget the details of that night, and nobody else seemed to remember anything other than my own recounting of the moment! This coupled with sin in my life caused me to doubt my salvation. This persisted for years as I was too afraid to upend the image everyone had of me as a Christian! But at a teen camp in 2014 I coughed up my pride and spoke to my youth pastor about my salvation. He walked me through salvation as if I were a child and God gloriously saved me! I knew it all in my head but never made the connection to my heart.
Years later, the Lord began to burden my heart for missions via the ministry of other missionaries and two missions trips to South Africa. Since then, I have spent 13 months there for an internship and saw the Lord bless and work so mightily in my life. He is worthy of your everything! He answers prayers you forgot you had and blesses in ways you would never expect but fills you like none other! I eagerly look forward to serving Jesus Christ with the rest of my years as He sees fit!
PAC Meeting

On Thursday, we held the best Pastoral Advisory Committee meeting we’ve had since its inception. We rejoiced together what God has done, updated, prayed, and shared future plans. These men have been crucial to VBM!
As of January 1, 2025, Pastor Jason Georges will begin serving as the PAC chairman, and Pastor Kyle Coker will serve as the vice chairman. Pastor Matt Herrell fulfilled his leadership as chairman and will roll off end of the year. Also, Pastor Rick Spence, Pastor Keith Hamilton, and Pastor John Copeland, who have been with us from the beginning of the PAC, will be rolling off at the end of this year. We will make you aware of the three new pastors that will join the PAC in January.

Great Open House





God gave us a very good Open House, with 9 prospective students checking out the School of Missions. One young man signed up as a new student before he left campus!!! There were several good prospects, and we are praising the Lord!
Silicone Rings with Mark 16:15!

New silicone rings have arrived!! Some of the items we’ve used throughout the years for schools, colleges, and churches, are: bracelets, bag tags, fidget spinners, stickers, pens, and a few other things… and now we’re trying out silicone rings.
The Carey Center Classroom Project: A Call to Prayer, Participation, and Giving!
Every minute, 110 people die without Christ – many have never heard the gospel. Last year, VBM missionaries saw 931 professions of faith, 364 believers baptized, and 13 churches started! With your help, we want to partner with local churches to train and send even more missionaries! Please pray for a special classroom project on the VBM campus that will triple our training capacity, allowing us to train up to 60 missionaries and Christian leaders. The project will cost $246,000. You can give by check to Vision Baptist Missions with “Carey Center” in the memo or online at the link below.
